A. Paradox

Answer:

A. Paradox

Explanation:

The language figure presented in these lines can not be Alliteration because the lines do not consist of repeating identical or similar consonant sounds in words of the phrase.  It can not be Personification because there is no placement to a human characteristic in those lines.  It also can not be Allusion because there is no use of a reference or quotation to a fact or person.

Thus, the lines present the figure of language called Paradox. The paradox, also known as oxymoron, is a figure of speech that "fuses" opposing concepts into a single statement. It can be described as the expression of a logical idea by the use of opposing terms. In a paradoxical statement, mutually exclusive notions are put in relation and / or focus on the same reference

Read the following excerpt from Sandra Cisneros’s story "Mericans."
kenny6666 [7]

The statement that describes the irony in the narrator's observation that the couple is "not from here" is "the narrator is not from 'here' either," option A.

<h3>What is irony?</h3>

Irony is usually described as a situation where the consequences or outcome is different from what we initially expected. Here, however, we are looking for the irony found in the narrator's words in the story "Mericans."

In this case, the irony is not about the situation or its outcome per se. It relates more to who is saying what about whom. The girl who narrates the story is "not from here," which means she is not completely American. She is of Mexican origin, but she still judges the couple she sees by saying they were clearly "not from here."

In other words, the irony is that everyone is "not from here" to someone. The narrator is "not from here" in the sense that she is Mexican. The couple is "not from here" in the sense that they are not Catholics.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the correct answer.
